Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To meet, enjoy, learn from, and share with people from around the world. You live once. Make the most of it. Travel, smile, laugh, and love. Feel alive! My wife and I are living in San Luis Obispo and we are willing to host if contacted in advance. I've traveled a bit and lived for over 4 years in Ghana, where my wife is from.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have hosted a good bit over the past few years while I was living in Ghana. I am now teaching at California Polytechnic State University in the beautiful town of San Luis Obispo. My wife and I share a small apartment near downtown SLO. We have an extra single bed and a couch in our living room. If you contact me in advance we might be able to accommodate an individual or a couple.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't surfed anybody's couch yet. I have had a good cs'ing experience though. While living in Ghana, I hosted a number of people from around the world and had only positive experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spent the night stranded, shivering with two friends, on a one-foot ledge 200 feet up a cliff.
Lived in a van for 4 1/2 months...
Teach, Learn, Share
I studied physics and chemistry, but love all sciences. I taught physics for a few years in Ghana as a Peace Corps volunteer and now I teach at a University. I love travel and meeting people from around the world.
